Blue Mountains Canada Day 150 Celebrations

Blue Mountains Canada Day 150 Celebrations

Celebrate Canada’s Sesquicentennial in the Blue Mountains

Start your 150 celebrations early on Thursday, June 29th in the Blue Mountains Village!

Being Canadian

In the Blue Mountain Village, Canada turns 150 to live music, Canadian flag cake, guided hiking, family activities and fireworks!

It all starts on Thursday, June 29th with a special screening of the star-studded film “Being Canadian.”

This documentary is incredibly pro-Canadian. A warm, funny, patriotic examination of the greatest (and often most overlooked) country in the world. At the end of the movie, and my journey, the audience will have a much more accurate picture of “us,” and what it is truly like Being Canadian.

The film is scheduled to be introduced by Producer Teza Lawrence on Thursday, June 29th at dusk. Arrive early to explore the Village and grab a snack before pulling up a Muskoka chair for this warm patriotic comedy.

There could be no better way to kick our Canada Day celebrations off, than by joining the community at the Blue Mountain village for this great Canadian film featuring a huge selection of Canadian celebrities, including: Mike Myers, Michael J. Fox, Conan O’Brien, Ben Stiller, Seth Rogen, Dan Aykroyd, Rush, Catherine O’Hara, The Barenaked Ladies, Rick Mercer, William Shatner, Eugene Levy and many, many more.

Friday June 30th

Then on Friday, head over to the Beaver Valley Community Centre at 58 Alfred Street West in Thornbury for our local Canada’s Day Eve Party, Hosted by the Blue Mountains Public Library.

Starting at 4:30 pm, the local community will come together to celebrate Canada’s 150th with a great line up of activities including the Black Angus BBQ, Culinary Designs Taco Stand, Face Painting and Children’s Activities, Foodland & Chapman’s Ice Cream Desserts, a Lemonade Stand, Beverages from Creemore Springs and Ardiel Cider House, Live music by Graham Playford and the Flying J’s and Fireworks.
